PS2 Emulator AetherSX2's Creator Suspends Development Following Death Threats

AetherSX2's developer is now suspending work indefinitely following death threats and harassment, but the app will run for the time being.

The gaming community is so damn toxic anymore.

blackblades1235d ago

The world is toxic, I know sfw and nsfw artist getting doxxed or death threats.

jznrpg1235d ago

My daughter told me about this . She’s an amazing artist but doesn’t want to put much online as people harass others frequently in the art community.

It’s not just one section of people this stuff happens in many groups especially online .

It’s ok to disagree or have an opinion but affecting peoples lives is a line you should never cross.

I talk small crap on here sometimes but it’s all fun and games nothing personal and I don’t wish anyone any harm . Even if I really dislike someone I don’t wish any ill will, have a great life I hope .

It’s good for us to disagree and challenge each other but keep it at that .

blackblades1235d ago

@jznrpg right, I know some people might say they just harmless death threat but these days some people actually act on it you never know. As former artist deviant art was safe back then to share art but idk about these days, Twitter from what i see on it that's a no.

RedDevils1235d ago

We call these people mental illness, and should be put in a care cause they're sick.

FinalFantasyFanatic1234d ago

I feel like the internet is the worst place for toxicity, there's alot of communities I just don't like participating in because of the attitudes of people involved, even if it's a very vocal minority (I don't think it's always a vocal minority).

It just seems to have gotten much worse over the past 15 or so years.

The best emulator I've seen for the system. Was totally surprised what you can play. Wink.

I would just ignore social media in his position. Tell them that you're making what you want to make. Don't like it, don't use it. I wouldn't take most of these idiots who threaten seriously. They'd have something waiting for them if they tried.

XiNatsuDragnel1235d ago

Oof really ppl but I ain't surprised anymore tbh.

Snookies121235d ago (Edited 1235d ago )

Anyone making death threats online should be tracked down and locked up. Or at the very least, placed in-patient for mental evaluation. It's not hard to find someone's location when you're posting things online, in most cases. Either way, if someone says something like this. There is something wrong in their head.

shinoff21831235d ago

Bingo. It's no different t then doing it in real life.

Darkegg1235d ago (Edited 1235d ago )

Yes the world need to exercise restraint

shinoff21831235d ago

Kinda f up on those people. I feel sorry for the dev that had to go through that bs

Maybe after some time he will finish it release it without his name attached and a different name for the app or something

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle25d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

This would be amazing especially if they did a Switch 2 version.
